How to find Us

Car Parking At The Surgery

Car parking at the surgery is limited and is for disabled patients and those with mobility problems. Please do not use disabled spaces unless entitled to do so.

Short stay car parking is available nearby in North Parade and Albion Way.

Patients who do use the car park are asked to register their car details at reception.

How to Register

The practice is only accepting patients as above who live within 3 miles to the West, South and East of the Practice and those who live within 5 miles to the North of the practice.

Patients are registered with a partner of the practice and may state their choice of doctor from those whose lists are currently open. If the patients registered doctor is unavailable, they will be offered an alternative but staff are asked to book patients in to be seen with their own doctor as much as possible as this helps to ensure continuity of care.

New Patient Registration

A Guide for New Patients:

In your New Patient Pack you will find the following:

A patient registration form

A practice brochure

Please return the required forms to the surgery duly completed together with two forms of identification which can prove you are resident in the local area.

Acceptable forms of identification are:

Photo Driving Licence

Bank or Building Society Statement showing your Horsham address

Utility Bill showing your Horsham address

Unfortunately, if you are unable to produce identification to prove Horsham residence, we may not be able to register you with the practice.

Our receptionist will check your ID and may take a photocopy of your passport or other photo ID. If you have a pre-existing chronic condition e.g., diabetes, the receptionist will offer you an appointment for a New Patient Medical Check. (Children under 10 do not usually need a check).

The medical will take between 15 minutes and half an hour and you will need to bring a specimen of urine with you for the nurse to test. Your blood pressure will be taken and any chronic medical conditions and/or family history noted. We will also check your height and weight and offer general health care advice.

If you are unable to keep your New Patient Medical Check appointment, please ensure that you telephone the surgery on 01403 330266.

Temporary Registration

If you are ill while away from home or if you are not registered with a doctor but need to see one you can receive emergency treatment from the local GP practice for 14 days. After 14 days you will need to register as a temporary or permanent patient.

You can be registered as a temporary patient for up to three months. This will allow you to be on the local practice list and still remain a patient of your permanent GP. After three months you will have to re-register as a temporary patient or permanently register with that practice.

To register as a temporary patient simply contact the local practice you wish to use. Practices do not have to accept you as a temporary patient although they do have an obligation to offer emergency treatment. You cannot register as a temporary patient at a practice in the town or area where you are already registered.
